Firing employees presents certain difficulties to managers and the business in general. It’s usually the hardest part of the working process. No task or business problem is as emotionally charged and as important fr om a team health perspective as the firing process.

Let’s admit it - no one likes to fire people. After all, we are social creatures and maintaining well-balanced relationships is part of our nature. This is especially true for startups and small businesses because in a small team everyone knows each other all too well. But you didn’t start a business to see it being destroyed by an underperforming employee. Knowing how to fire employees is a leadership skill that you need to master if you want to see your business succeed.

Our partner Make Interactive has released a new app that allows you to migrate to Bitrix24 from Asana, Basecamp, Wrike, Trello or any other task manager where tasks can be exported to Excel (CSV) file. Here's a short video overview of the app

A compelling statement from one of our clients that triggered the development of this app was that a quote is often the first impression that the customer gets, since it is the first thing that they see with the company name and logo on it. Furthermore, the PDF or printed quote is an instrument of the most fundamental part of the relationship, payment for products or services.

The existing quotes in Bitrix24 are rather limited, especially concerning the layout of the components of the quote on the page. MAKE Interactive has solved this issue in an elegant way: by saving a .docx file in a special folder in the Drive, it becomes a template for your quotes. More than 1 template can be created and selected. After a Quote is made for the CRM, it can be selected in the App’s page, and the information from the quote will go into the template.

Every year something exciting happens. We imagine ourselves millionaires and want to spend hours browsing retail shelves in a search for that perfect gift for a loved one. Tis the season. For business owners this period is marked by incessant anxiety and frustration. There are way too many things to deal with! Worse even, customers are jumping ships and flee to your competitors because you happened to have missed some valuable insights about customer preferences.

But fear not. Thankfully, there is a plethora of information and research online that reveals the needs and wants of customers.

Based on the forecast for this year, the holiday retail season will be a blast. US consumers are planning to spend between 3.5 - 4.5% more than they did in 2016. Sounds like good news, doesn’t it?

Who needs recurring deals in CRM? Any business that uses subscription or retainer model instead of one off sales. Once you select the interval that appropriate for your business, new deal will be automatically created when it’s time to talk to your clients about renewal.

CRM is evolving and changing all the time. It’s one of the fastest growing industries, that brings innovation and simplifies lives of thousands people and businesses.

CRMs are no longer viewed as an option, it’s a must. In 2018 this tendency will continue, with more companies shifting to cloud-based CRM solutions.

Trends in CRM are largely influenced by the trends in the software industry.

Interacting, cognifying, flowing, screening, accessing, sharing, filtering, remixing, tracking, and questioning are the 12 trends that already started revolutionizing the way we live and work. CRM trends, even though on a smaller scale, follow the same defined pattern.
